00:00:00Not far away, Kevin saw this scene, and a hint of admiration flashed across his eyes.
00:00:08Now that's a real man!
00:00:12Although he wasn't on good terms with Barry, he respected his behavior when in danger.
00:00:19Since the experience of the Black Snake, Barry had never once thought of escaping.
00:00:25His only thought was to protect Bianca and the numerous Oso family mercenaries.
00:00:31Loyalty.
00:00:33For this kind of person, even though he was an enemy, Kevin would still show him respect.
00:00:40Kevin walked towards the Black Snake with his hands behind his back.
00:00:44The four Bennett siblings were all extremely shocked.
00:00:49Kevin, what are you trying to do?
00:00:52Snake slaying!
00:00:54Kevin replied without turning his head back.
00:00:57Snake slaying?
00:00:59The four Bennett siblings couldn't help but look at each other and see the look of shock
00:01:04in each other's eyes.
00:01:06The Black Snake had already displayed such powerful fighting strength, so why would Kevin
00:01:12face it alone?
00:01:15No one was running away except Kevin, who walked forward with his hands calmly behind
00:01:20his back.
00:01:22Amongst the crowd, his figure was very eye-catching.
00:01:25Hey, what are you doing?
00:01:30Everyone was astonished when he saw Kevin.
00:01:33Bianca's face was also filled with disbelief.
00:01:38Was Kevin going to sacrifice himself?
00:01:42Could it be that he couldn't see that this Black Snake was an invincible beast compared
00:01:47to the rest of them?
00:01:49Kevin walked leisurely.
00:01:51He quickly arrived in front of Barry.
00:01:55Seeing Kevin, Barry's expression became strange.
00:02:00What are you doing?
00:02:02Saving you, Kevin smiled faintly.
00:02:05Save me?
00:02:07Barry's tone froze, and he almost cursed Kevin for being stupid.
00:02:13Be careful!
00:02:16At that moment, the Black Snake pounced over.
00:02:20Barry's pupils constricted, and he subconsciously moved past Kevin to attack the Black Snake.
00:02:26However, Kevin's speed was even faster than his.
00:02:31Barry only saw a blur appear in front of him.
00:02:34Then, he clenched his hand into a fist and punched the snake's head.
00:02:40Bam!
00:02:43A muffled sound rang out.
00:02:46Kevin took a step back.
00:02:48However, the Black Snake did not take advantage of the situation.
00:02:53Instead, its head was raised high into the air, and it let out a mournful hiss.
00:03:00This scene caused everyone to instantly gape with their mouths wide open, their eyes revealing
00:03:06a look of disbelief.
00:03:09The place where Kevin's iron fist hit the snake's head was bleeding.
00:03:14This was the first time it was injured since coming out of the water.
00:03:19How did Kevin do it?
00:03:22One must know that even if the bullet hit the snake's head, it would only leave a white
00:03:27mark.
00:03:28But now, Kevin only used his fists to break the Black Snake's defenses.
00:03:35It was simply unbelievable.
00:03:38You are a martial artist!
00:03:41Barry almost blurted it out, and he didn't hide the shock on his face.
00:03:47Although he had already guessed that Kevin was a martial artist, he was still shocked
00:03:52when Kevin displayed the strength of a martial artist.
00:03:56In his mind, even if Kevin were a martial artist, he would only be at the middle stage
00:04:01of Bright Force.
00:04:04But now, the punch Kevin displayed had nothing to do with the middle stage, but had to be
00:04:09at least stage Dark Force.
00:04:13Even he couldn't compare to this kind of strength.
00:04:17Kevin ignored Barry and looked at the Black Snake with interest.
00:04:22He didn't know how long this Black Snake had lived in the Jade Spring, but it seemed
00:04:26to have a faint trace of intelligence.
00:04:30Its pair of dark green eyes stared at Kevin.
00:04:33The fear in its eyes was very strong, just like a human's fear.
00:04:38Sword, come!
00:04:40Kevin stretched out his hand.
00:04:43Dex took the sword off his back and threw it high into the air.
00:04:48The long sword cut through the air and landed firmly in Kevin's hand.
00:04:53With the sword in hand, Kevin was confident.
00:04:58That punch of his just now had tested out the Black Serpent's approximate strength,
00:05:03surpassing the latter stages of the Dark Force and faintly approached the early period of
00:05:09Converting Force stage.
00:05:12It was slightly weaker than Kevin was, but because it was covered in scales, its defensive
00:05:18power was extremely strong, and its strength was nearly at the level of the early period
00:05:24of Converting Force stage.
00:05:27If he were to use just his fists, he probably wouldn't be much of a match for the Black
00:05:31Snake.
00:05:33He had to borrow a sword.
00:05:36The Black Snake moved almost at the same time Kevin grabbed the sword.
00:05:42The snake's body shot toward Kevin like a cannonball.
00:05:47Kevin's expression did not change.
00:05:49Instead, he lightly stomped his foot and leaped high into the air, dodging the unstoppable
00:05:55attack of the Black Snake.
00:05:58The snake's body carried a great amount of force and collided with the huge rock that
00:06:03Kevin was standing on.
00:06:05Boom!
00:06:06A loud crashing sound rang out.
00:06:10The huge rock, the size of a car, exploded with a loud explosion, as if it had been hit
00:06:16by a rocket.
00:06:19The rock pieces flew in all directions.
00:06:21Outside, Bianca's heart suddenly tightened before relaxing.
00:06:27The four Bennett siblings also let out a sigh of relief.
00:06:31They thought that Kevin wouldn't be able to dodge the attack from the Black Snake.
00:06:36But Kevin looked very skilled in his current state.
00:06:40One strike missed.
00:06:43The fear in the Black Snake's eyes deepened, and there was even a hint of anger.
00:06:49It stared at Kevin, its snake body constantly swaying on the ground, leaving behind a long
00:06:55trail.
00:06:57However, he didn't attack Kevin again.
00:07:01It was as if he was waiting for Kevin to reveal an opening.
00:07:05Interesting, Kevin smiled.
00:07:09This Black Snake had indeed developed a bit of intelligence.
00:07:14Kevin's entire body relaxed as he deliberately left an opening.
00:07:19In the next second, the Black Snake attacked like lightning.
00:07:23It was earth-shattering.
00:07:26Kevin's muscles instantly tensed up, and his expression became serious.
00:07:31He gripped the sword in his hand tightly, and circulated all the force in his body as
00:07:36he rushed towards the sword.
00:07:39The long sword cut through the air like a rainbow from heaven, slashing down at the
00:07:44Black Snake.
00:07:46It was light as a feather, but heavy as a mountain.
00:07:50Swish!
00:07:53The long sword cut into the snake's body, seven inches from its head.
00:07:59It left a foot-long wound.
00:08:02Fresh red snake blood spurted out, splashing high into the air.
00:08:08Blood rained down from the sky, and the head of the Black Serpent was lifted high into
00:08:12the air as it cried out in pain.
00:08:15The entire audience went silent again.
00:08:18He was hurt!
00:08:20He was hurt again, badly!
00:08:24If the first time Kevin injured the Black Snake could be explained with luck, then the
00:08:29second time was not luck, but strength and skill.
00:08:34Kevin landed steadily on the ground.
00:08:37A trace of human-like fear appeared in the eyes of the Black Snake.
00:08:42The body of the snake began to move toward Jade Spring.
00:08:47You want to run?
00:08:49Kevin sneered.
00:08:50It's not that easy.
00:08:53Kevin took a step forward and ferociously stepped into the air.
00:08:58He stood in the air as though there was an invisible staircase in front of him.
00:09:03With every step Kevin took, his momentum increased.
00:09:08First it was like a surging river.
00:09:11Then it was like a tsunami.
00:09:14When he arrived in front of the Black Snake, the world was already hanging upside down.
00:09:21The fear in the eyes of the Black Serpent instantly intensified.
00:09:26An unprecedented sense of life and death anger surrounded it.
00:09:30At this moment, Kevin swung his sword.
00:09:35The sharpness of the sword was unmatched and unrivaled.
00:09:39When this sword slashed out, it seemed that even the heavens and earth could be cleaved
00:09:44in half.
00:09:47In front of everyone's eyes, there was an earth-shattering silver light.
00:09:52This beam of light was like a long blade cutting through the water, easily cutting through
00:09:57all obstructions.
00:10:00It chopped towards the head of the Black Snake.
00:10:04The snake's body was sliced in half as if Kevin were cutting a piece of paper.
00:10:09The steel-hard scales nor the tremendous size of the snake were no match for his blade or
00:10:15his power.
00:10:18The Black Snake let out an extremely mournful cry.
00:10:23The snake's head slid down with the sword.
00:10:26Blood gushed out from the snake's body.
00:10:29The wound was as smooth and crisp as glass.
00:10:33Boom!
00:10:35The mountain-like head and the 50-foot-tall body of the snake split apart in midair, smashing
00:10:41toward the ground with a loud bang.
00:10:47The snake's head hit the ground, causing dirt and dust to fly into the sky.
00:10:54The snake's body fell into the water, causing a huge wave to surge onto the shore.
00:11:01This huge black serpent, which had killed dozens of mercenaries and defeated a middle-period
00:11:06Dark Force stage warrior with one move, was killed by Kevin's sword!
00:11:12Rising into the air, he took three steps forward and slashed at the snake.
00:11:18While the snake's blood rained down, Kevin held up his sword.
00:11:24At that very moment, the demonic figure was imprinted into the minds of everyone present.
00:11:31He would never forget it for the rest of his life.
00:11:35Die?
00:11:37Dead?
00:11:39Barry's Adam's apple bopped up and down.
00:11:42Until this moment, he still could not believe that the seemingly invincible Black Snake
00:11:47would be killed with a single slash from Kevin.
00:11:52Kevin, he...is he still human?
00:11:55Atticus's eyes widened, and his face was filled with disbelief.
00:12:00A fifty foot long Black Snake, and Kevin, was able to cut it down just like that?
00:12:07How can you say that?
00:12:10Dex glared at Atticus in annoyance.
00:12:13Although he knew that Atticus meant this out of good intentions, he still opened his mouth
00:12:18a little.
00:12:20A slip of the tongue, Atticus smiled in embarrassment.
00:12:25Was he acting too excited?
00:12:29Dex sighed and didn't say anything.
00:12:31However, his reverence for Kevin had reached an unprecedented level.
00:12:38Without a doubt, Kevin was the strongest fighter he had ever met.
00:12:42He was ridiculously strong!
00:12:46Bianca's mouth was wide open at this moment.
00:12:48Astonishment and disbelief were written all over her face.
00:12:53She couldn't connect the friend-like figure in front of her with the young man roasting
00:12:58rabbits at the top of the mountain.
00:13:01When Barry fell to the ground, she was even prepared to die.
00:13:06In her view, this Black Snake was simply a reproduction of the legendary horrific demons
00:13:12from the past.
00:13:14Unfortunately, it had long since surpassed the realm humans could deal with.
00:13:21The Oso family had twenty-plus mercenaries who had shot several thousand bullets with
00:13:27their rifles, but they couldn't even penetrate the Black Snake's scales.
00:13:33Barry and Jared, the two middle-period dark force stage warriors, could only barely break
00:13:39the defense of the Black Serpent.
00:13:42One could only imagine how powerful this Black Serpent was.
00:13:46However, such a tyrannical Black Snake was cut down by Kevin with three steps in the
00:13:52air!
00:13:53It was an unprecedented shock!
00:13:58Kevin was like a god that had descended from the heavens!
00:14:03Bianca could not believe that Kevin had been able to defeat such an impossible foe against
00:14:07the odds.
00:14:11Bianca could not believe that Kevin had been able to defeat such an impossible foe against
00:14:16all the odds.
00:14:17In Bianca's heart, Kevin was truly a superman.
00:14:23Thank you, sir!
00:14:26Kevin, your saving grace is something that I will never forget.
00:14:31If you have any use for me in the future, feel free to ask for it.
00:14:36There is nothing I would not do to return the favor you have shown me.
00:14:40Barry bowed deeply and said it loudly.
00:14:45Although Kevin did not reveal everything he was capable of in this battle, anyone with
00:14:49a discerning eye could tell that his realm had long since exceeded the level of dark
00:14:54forces.
00:14:57He was not at the level of transcending dark force, and that was strength conversion.
00:15:03It also meant he was a martial arts master.
00:15:08With Kevin achieving martial arts master at such a young age, Barry didn't know what else
00:15:13to say.
00:15:15Thinking of his previous contempt and hatred towards Kevin, Barry wanted to slap himself
00:15:21twice.
00:15:22Being a martial arts master, even one who was so young, demanded the respect of even
00:15:29the Oso family.
00:15:32Only Kevin was a forgiving person.
00:15:35Otherwise, he would have long been buried in a snake's belly.
00:15:40Kevin waved his hand disapprovingly.
00:15:43To him, saving Barry was nothing more than business as usual.
00:15:49Even without Barry, he could have killed this snake today.
00:15:53Kevin, there's nothing else in the water, right?
00:15:58At this time, the four Bennett siblings walked over, and Atticus looked into the Jade Springs
00:16:04with lingering fear.
00:16:07If Kevin didn't remind them today, the four siblings would have been so silly that they
00:16:12would have been swallowed into the snake's stomach before they could even see the face
00:16:16of the snake.
00:16:18Kevin shook his head and said with a smile,
00:16:21No, you guys can go into the water to pick the ice lotus now.
00:16:27All right, Atticus was elated.
00:16:31Without wearing a diving suit, he dove straight into the water.
00:16:35Barry, we'll take the ice lotus.
00:16:38Do you have any objections?
00:16:40Dex turned his gaze to Barry and asked with a smile.
00:16:46Barry hurriedly shook his head.
00:16:48No objections, no objections.
00:16:51This ice lotus should be yours.
00:16:54If it weren't for Kevin and his actions today, the ice lotus would still be at the bottom
00:16:58of the Jade Spring and protected by the great snake.
00:17:02Thank you, Kevin.
00:17:05At this moment, Bianca also walked over and bowed deeply toward Kevin.
00:17:10You're welcome.
00:17:13You're welcome.
00:17:15Kevin slightly smiled at this young Oso family lady.
00:17:19He did not have much hatred.
00:17:22Although she was a little arrogant and dainty, her heart was very kind.
00:17:28Kevin, can you sell me your ice lotus?
00:17:32Bianca mustered up her courage to ask.
00:17:35If she could avoid it, she wouldn't ask Kevin about it, but her grandfather was too sick
00:17:41and only a treasure like the ice lotus could save him.
00:17:46Kevin frowned slightly.
00:17:48Bianca's request made him feel troubled since the ice lotus was a highly valuable resource.
00:17:55They only needed one stock of it for Bron and Claire, and although there was still one
00:17:59stock left, this one could be used in the future.
00:18:04Kevin, I can pay a lot of money.
00:18:09Bianca hurriedly said as if she was afraid that Kevin would refuse.
00:18:13However, her tone was a bit timid.
00:18:17To someone like Kevin, money didn't seem to mean much.
00:18:22Kevin smiled bitterly.
00:18:24Miss Oso, it's not a matter of money.
00:18:28Huh?
00:18:30Bianca's mouth was agape.
00:18:32What was the problem if it wasn't money?
00:18:36I can sell you the ice lotus.
00:18:39Then after pondering for a moment, Kevin suddenly said,
00:18:43But I have a condition.
00:18:46What is your condition?
00:18:48Seeing Kevin looking at her, Bianca couldn't help but blush slightly.
00:18:53Kevin wouldn't want her to accompany him that way.
00:18:56If he wanted that, would she agree to it?
00:19:00Kevin didn't notice Bianca's blushing face and said,
00:19:05I want the Oso family to owe me a favor.
00:19:08Whenever I need something in the future, the Oso family will have to help me.
00:19:13The Oso family?
00:19:16Bianca was slightly stunned.
00:19:19When she saw that Kevin was serious, she realized that she was overthinking it.
00:19:25For a moment, her face blushed even more.
00:19:29What do you say?
00:19:30Kevin asked.
00:19:32Uh, as long as you agree to sell the ice lotus to me,
00:19:37the Oso family can owe you one favor.
00:19:40Bianca said hurriedly.
00:19:42Can you represent the Oso family?
00:19:45He said to the Oso family, not Bianca.
00:19:48There was a huge difference between the two of them.
00:19:52One of them was one of the four great families of Santa Rosa,
00:19:56with a fortune 500 to 600 billion,
00:20:00possessing monstrous power and influence.
00:20:04The other one was a young lady with only the Oso family name.
00:20:09Although she possessed a decisive position within the Oso family,
00:20:14she was still a level away from affecting the decisions that the Oso family made.
00:20:20It should be possible.
00:20:22Bianca was a little embarrassed since she did not know
00:20:25whether Grandfather Oso would agree to grant him a favor.
00:20:29After all, a favor from the Oso family could be big or small.
00:20:38Should?
00:20:39Kevin smiled bitterly.
00:20:42It seemed like maybe Bianca, this little girl,
00:20:45still could not speak for the Oso family after all.
00:20:49Kevin, I can go and speak directly with my grandfather.
00:20:54He will agree.
00:20:56Bianca looked at Kevin weakly.
00:21:00Kevin shook his head and laughed.
00:21:02No need, Miss Oso.
00:21:05Regardless of whether or not the Oso family agrees to my request,
00:21:09I will still sell this ice lotus to you.
00:21:13Compared to Kevin, even though the ice lotus was important,
00:21:17it wasn't irreplaceable.
00:21:20On the contrary, Kevin was of vital importance
00:21:24and could prove to be an asset to the Oso family.
00:21:28Thank you, Kevin.
00:21:30Bianca's smile was like a flower.
00:21:33She didn't expect Kevin to be so easy to talk to.
00:21:38Uncle Barry, what's the market price for the ice lotus?
00:21:41Bianca asked.
00:21:44About 1.5 billion.
00:21:47After pondering for a moment, Barry reported a number.
00:21:50Ah!
00:21:52Bianca couldn't help but exclaim.
00:21:551.5 billion?
00:21:57Why was it so expensive?
00:22:00Miss, treasures like the ice lotus
00:22:03are incredibly rare and nearly unattainable.
00:22:07A few years ago, at an international auction
00:22:10held on the Montelina cruise ship in France,
00:22:13an ice lotus was sold for 1.3 billion dollars.
00:22:18Now that a few years have passed,
00:22:20the market price for the ice lotus would be even higher.
00:22:23Barry smiled bitterly.
00:22:26He knew that Bianca didn't have that much money.
00:22:29Kevin, I only have 500 million on me right now.
00:22:34As for the remaining 1 billion,
00:22:36can I pay it back within three years?
00:22:40Bianca glanced at Kevin awkwardly as she spoke.
00:22:45She indeed didn't have that much money.
00:22:48Even though she was the little princess of the Oso family
00:22:51and had an important position,
00:22:53she didn't put much effort
00:22:55into managing the few companies under her name.
00:22:59She only earned 2 or 300 million every year at most.
00:23:04No need to write me IOUs.
00:23:07I'll sell you the ice lotus for 500 million.
00:23:11Kevin smiled and said.
00:23:141 billion might be a lot, but he wasn't lacking in money.
00:23:19It would be better for him to go with the flow
00:23:21and accept Bianca's offer.
00:23:24500 million?
00:23:27Bianca was dumbfounded.
00:23:29Was there anyone who sold things like Kevin?
00:23:33The other sellers were afraid that their products
00:23:36would not sell at a high enough price.
00:23:39But Kevin was the exception.
00:23:411 billion less.
00:23:44A billion dollars, not 10.
00:23:49Even if it was within the Oso family,
00:23:51a billion was still not a small number.
00:23:55No, no, Bianca quickly waved her hand
00:23:58and said with a flushed face.
00:24:01I am already grateful to you for agreeing
00:24:04to sell the ice lotus in the first place.
00:24:06How can I take advantage of you this way?
00:24:09It's only 1.5 billion,
00:24:12and the remaining 1 billion will be paid
00:24:13within the next three years.
00:24:16Seeing Bianca's firm expression,
00:24:18Kevin nodded helplessly.
00:24:21All right, then I won't be polite.
00:24:26A smile finally appeared on Bianca's face.
00:24:30Dex, get Jared, River, and a few other brothers
00:24:34to bring this black snake back.
00:24:37Kevin shifted his gaze towards Dex.
00:24:41The biggest gain from this trip to Beverly Hills
00:24:44was not the ice lotus,
00:24:45but rather the black python in front of him.
00:24:49To be exact, it was the corpse of the black snake.
00:24:54Judging from its size,
00:24:55it must have a lifespan of over 200 years.
00:25:00200 years.
00:25:02How amazing is that?
00:25:05Even if it were a pig, after living for 200 years,
00:25:09it would still become a remarkable pig.
00:25:12What's more, it was a black snake
00:25:15that could absorb the essence of the sun and the moon.
00:25:20Within 200 years,
00:25:21the black snake had evolved into a different species.
00:25:25Its scales were invulnerable to weapons.
00:25:29If it were made into an inner armor,
00:25:31its defensive capabilities would be superior
00:25:34to even the most advanced bulletproof vest in the world.
00:25:39In addition to its scales,
00:25:41the gall of this snake was a rare treasure.
00:25:45Ordinary people would only need to swallow a little bit of it
00:25:48to extend their lifespan and make them immune to poisons.
00:25:52Combined with the ice lotus,
00:25:55it would be extremely beneficial.
00:25:57Even if it was for a warrior.
00:26:00In short, the entire body of this black snake was valuable
00:26:05and filled with treasures
00:26:07and may even be more beneficial than the three ice lotus.
00:26:11A few minutes later,
00:26:13Atticus came out of the water
00:26:15with three snow white lotuses in his hands.
00:26:18It was the ice lotus.
00:26:21Kevin, I found it.
00:26:24The ice lotus was the bane of all fire poison.
00:26:28However, if there was an ice lotus,
00:26:31then bronze fire poison could be cured quickly.
00:26:35Put it on.
00:26:37Kevin smiled and allowed Dex to take out the jade box
00:26:40he had prepared a long time ago.
00:26:43He then divided the three ice lotus
00:26:45and gave one to Bianca for the box.
00:26:49After thinking them repeatedly,
00:26:51Bianca brought everyone down the mountain.
00:26:55Three hours later,
00:26:56Jared and River arrived with dozens of men.
00:27:01When they saw the mountainous corpse of the black snake,
00:27:04everyone was instantly petrified.
00:27:07The shock on their faces could not be ignored.
00:27:12While Jared and River stood shocked
00:27:14and gazing at the snake's body,
00:27:17a white private jet landed on Sacramento's runway.
00:27:21The cabin door opened,
00:27:23revealing a tall woman wearing black sunglasses
00:27:26and a short black skirt and stockings.
00:27:30The woman's skin was translucent like jade,
00:27:34and her oval face was as exquisite
00:27:36as if the sculptor himself had carved it.
00:27:39In addition to her beautiful face,
00:27:42the woman's figure was also exquisite.
00:27:45With extremely tempting curves.
00:27:48After getting off the plane,
00:27:50the woman took off her sunglasses,
00:27:52revealing a pair of long, narrow, beautiful eyes.
00:27:57At this moment,
00:27:59those brilliant eyes were filled with hatred.
00:28:03Where is that creep now?
00:28:05The woman spoke coldly with a tone
00:28:07that didn't contain a shred of kindness.
00:28:10Miss, he went to Beverly Hills early this morning
00:28:14and hasn't returned yet.
00:28:17A man in a black suit with headphones replied respectfully.
00:28:21Go to his house and wait for him.
00:28:25The woman's lips curled up into a sneer
00:28:28and everyone got into a waiting Rolls Royce.
00:28:32At this moment, Eileen was cooking in the kitchen,
00:28:36chopping vegetables and cheerfully humming to herself.
00:28:40She was obviously in a good mood.
00:28:43Eileen had maintained this feeling
00:28:45ever since she had moved into Beverly Hills.
00:28:49Despite the envious gaze of outsiders,
00:28:52it wasn't hard to notice that she, Eileen,
00:28:55had become a person of high status
00:28:58and had stepped into the upper class.
00:29:01The neighbors who had previously mocked her
00:29:03were now all respectful when they saw her,
00:29:06calling her madam or lady.
00:29:10Eileen felt that her life had reached its peak.
00:29:13Just then, a burst of intense knocking sounds
00:29:17came from the front door.
00:29:19Coming, coming!
00:29:22Eileen yelled as she put down the kitchen knife in her hand
00:29:25and walked towards the door.
00:29:28The person at the door seemed to be a bit impatient
00:29:31as he increased the knocking level again.
00:29:34This time, Eileen could not hold it in any longer.
00:29:39She raised her voice and cursed loudly.
00:29:42I'm coming already!
00:29:44If you knock down my door, you'll be in serious trouble!
00:29:48Bang!
00:29:50As soon as the irritating words left her mouth,
00:29:53the wooden door was kicked open and torn apart,
00:29:57sending wood chips flying everywhere.
00:30:01Eileen's eyes widened in anger.
00:30:05Thump, thump, thump!
00:30:08She stormed over to the door
00:30:10and was about to curse out loud,
00:30:13but instead, she was met with a cold and emotionless gaze
00:30:17that stopped her in her tracks.
00:30:28Eileen instantly lost her voice,
00:30:30as if someone had grabbed her by the throat.
00:30:34She was so shocked that she swallowed the words
00:30:37she had wanted to say.
00:30:40Who are you?
00:30:41Why did you kick in my door?
00:30:44Eileen asked as she struggled to suppress her anger.
00:30:48She could tell these visitors were not ordinary people,
00:30:52so she controlled her angry outburst.
00:30:55The tall, slender woman in the doorway
00:30:58was dressed in chic, costly designer clothing.
00:31:02Behind her followed an older man in a white suit.
00:31:06Although he was squinting his eyes,
00:31:09it was clear he was not someone to be trifled with.
00:31:13There were also three bodyguards in black suits.
00:31:16Eileen did not dare show her anger
00:31:19based on the stern look on their faces.
00:31:22You are not important enough to know my name,
00:31:27the tall lady said with a proud expression on her face.
00:31:31A trace of embarrassment flashed across Eileen's face.
00:31:35This woman was unbelievably pretentious.
00:31:40What about the bastard?
00:31:42The tall woman scanned the living room
00:31:44and didn't see Kevin.
00:31:47Who are you calling a bastard?
00:31:49All my family members have proper names,
00:31:52and none is illegitimate.
00:31:55Eileen frowned as she couldn't take it anymore.
00:31:59This stranger had destroyed the recently renovated door
00:32:02of her home, and she hadn't even said a word.
00:32:07Did she think she was so easy to bully?
00:32:11The woman frowned.
00:32:13You dare to talk back?
00:32:17I...
00:32:18Eileen glared at her.
00:32:21She wanted to curse out loud, but when she met her cold gaze,
00:32:25she was instantly terrified.
00:32:28Her tone immediately softened.
00:32:31I didn't retort.
00:32:33You misunderstood.
00:32:35Misunderstand?
00:32:37The tall woman sneered.
00:32:39I believe it's you who misunderstands.
00:32:43Tell me at once, where is that bastard?
00:32:49Kevin?
00:32:50The bastard you talk about is Kevin.
00:32:53Deborah had hated Kevin since she was young.
00:32:57She hated him so much that she refused
00:33:00to call him by his name.
00:33:02Eileen finally understood.
00:33:06Are you talking about that trash?
00:33:09He's not home right now, Eileen said happily.
00:33:13The tall woman before her was here
00:33:15to cause trouble with Kevin.
00:33:18The enemy of her enemy was her friend.
00:33:22Eileen's attitude immediately became enthusiastic,
00:33:26and even how she looked at Deborah
00:33:28became much more pleasant.
00:33:31When will he be back?
00:33:34Eileen's reaction made it not hard to tell
00:33:37that the rumors inside the Bennett family were true.
00:33:41In the three years that Kevin had been a son-in-law
00:33:44in the Wright family,
00:33:46he was treated worse than a pig or a dog.
00:33:50He was despised by the people of the Wright family,
00:33:53especially his mother-in-law, Eileen.
00:33:57I don't know, but ma'am, if you need anything,
00:34:01I can call him back.
00:34:04Recently, Kevin had caused her quite a bit of embarrassment
00:34:08and even slapped her a few days ago.
00:34:11She had wanted to take her revenge,
00:34:13and today she was going to use this woman
00:34:16to deal with Kevin.
00:34:19Call him! Tell him to come back here immediately!
00:34:25A cold light flashed through Deborah's eyes.
00:34:29Eileen smiled as she took out her phone.
00:34:32A cold voice came behind her.
00:34:35Don't you dare call him!
00:34:38It was Claire.
00:34:40Deborah shifted her gaze to Claire.
00:34:44She smiled playfully.
00:34:46You're the bastard's wife!
00:34:49Watch your mouth!
00:34:51Claire's face turned cold.
00:34:53Although there was a rift between her and Kevin,
00:34:56she definitely wouldn't allow anyone to insult Kevin in front of her.
00:35:01Deborah didn't mind.
00:35:03She took two steps forward and stood in front of Claire, mocking her.
00:35:08What if I don't?
00:35:11I'll call him whatever I like.
00:35:14What are you going to do about it?
00:35:19Claire's beautiful eyes turned cold.
00:35:22She raised her hand, preparing to slap Deborah.
00:35:26However, Deborah was faster.
00:35:29Ha!
00:35:31After a clear and melodious sound,
00:35:34Claire was slapped down to the ground.
00:35:37A blood-red handprint appeared on her fair and charming face,
00:35:42and traces of blood flowed out from the corners of her mouth.
00:35:46Stupid girl, you sure are protective of that bastard,
00:35:52Deborah sneered.
00:35:55Claire's reaction had surprised even her.
00:35:59However, Claire held Kevin in such high regard
00:36:03that she would always defend him and his honor,
00:36:06no matter who pitted her against him.
00:36:10He was so noble that he couldn't be insulted.
00:36:14It could only be said that Kevin held a sacred space in Claire's heart.
00:36:19Eileen, are there any guests?
00:36:22At this moment, Alan came out of the bedroom with sleepy eyes.
00:36:27When he saw the scene in the living room,
00:36:29his expression immediately changed.
00:36:32Who are you?
00:36:33Why did you hit my daughter?
00:36:36Alan immediately shifted his gaze to Deborah.
00:36:40Your daughter?
00:36:42Deborah glanced at Alan with a cold smile
00:36:46and slapped Claire's face again.
00:36:49I hit her because she deserves a beating!
00:36:54You're playing with fire.
00:36:57Alan was furious.
00:36:58He picked up the bench on the floor and pounced on Deborah.
00:37:03No!
00:37:04Eileen was shocked.
00:37:06Just as she wanted to stop Alan,
00:37:08Deborah's bodyguard leapt high into the air
00:37:11and lashed out with a kick aimed at Alan's nose.
00:37:16A loud cracking sound rang out in the room.
00:37:20Alan flew backwards and smashed into the hallway.
00:37:24His nose was broken instantly,
00:37:26and blood gushed like a spring.
00:37:30Who are you to come into my house and assault me?
00:37:34Aren't there still laws?
00:37:36Eileen was getting angrier and angrier all the time.
00:37:41Laws?
00:37:42The bodyguard that had attacked Alan sneered.
00:37:46This woman and her family are above the law.
00:37:51Mom, call the police!
00:37:53Claire gritted her teeth.
00:37:55The arrogance of these people was beyond her imagination.
00:38:01Call the police!
00:38:04Be my guest.
00:38:05I want to see what kind of police officer dares to arrest me,
00:38:10Deborah Bennett.
00:38:13Deborah sneered again and looked highly arrogant.
00:38:17Deborah Bennett?
00:38:19Claire's pupils constricted as shock swept across her body.
00:38:24It's someone from the Bennett family.
00:38:28All right, just wait.
00:38:30I'll report this.
00:38:31Eileen was infuriated.
00:38:34She did not believe that this so-called all-important Deborah Bennett
00:38:39was so powerful that she could disregard the police.
00:38:44Deborah's expression was relaxed and casual.
00:38:48She did not register Eileen's threat at all.
00:38:52Even if the head of Sacramento, Lester Miller, came and saw her face,
00:38:57he would still respectfully call her Miss Bennett,
00:39:00let alone a few measly police officers.
00:39:04Mom, there's no need to call.
00:39:07If it was someone from the Bennett family,
00:39:09calling the police would be useless.
00:39:12You don't want to report this?
00:39:15Why not?
00:39:16Eileen's eyes widened in confusion.
00:39:19No reason.
00:39:21Claire took a deep breath and looked back at Deborah.
00:39:25Why are you looking for Kevin?
00:39:28You have no right to know.
00:39:31Deborah glanced at Claire in disdain.
00:39:34Although Claire was Kevin's wife, in the eyes of the Bennett family,
00:39:39Claire's status was about the same as the servants.
00:39:44After glancing at Claire once more, Deborah spoke with a cold voice.
00:39:49Listen, girl.
00:39:50If you know what's good for you, then you'll
00:39:53call the piece of trash as soon as possible.
00:39:57I'll give you 10 seconds.
00:40:00In 10 seconds, if you don't obey, I'll break one of your legs.
00:40:10I'll call.
00:40:11Claire took a deep breath.
00:40:14At least you're sensible.
00:40:17Deborah's face broke into a smile.
00:40:21She thought that Claire was some pure and innocent woman,
00:40:25but she only needed to frighten her a little to reveal her true colors.
00:40:30Claire took out her cell phone and dialed Kevin's number.
00:40:34At that moment, Kevin was on his way down the mountain.
00:40:39Seeing that the call was from Claire, a hint of happiness
00:40:43appeared on Kevin's face.
00:40:45This was the first time she had called him in the past few days.
00:40:50He answered the phone, and an emotionless voice came out the phone.
00:40:55Kevin, let's get divorced.
00:40:57Don't come to my house again.
00:40:59Click.
00:41:01The call ended, and the line went dead.
00:41:05Kevin was not even given the slightest chance to react.
00:41:10Divorce?
00:41:12Kevin's heart tightened.
00:41:14What did Claire mean by this?
00:41:17Was this the decision she had made after thinking it over?
00:41:22After Claire hung up the phone, a smacking sound rang out.
00:41:27Deborah had slapped Claire hard in the face,
00:41:30sending her flying and crashing into the wall, where she spit blood.
00:41:36Idiot.
00:41:38Deborah gritted her teeth as her face turned blood red.
00:41:42It was obvious that she was not furious.
00:41:45She didn't expect Claire to defy her.
00:41:49Sorry to disappoint you.
00:41:51The corner of Claire's mouth curved into a bitter smile.
00:41:56Without a doubt, Deborah came to start a war with Kevin.
00:42:01In the past, whenever Claire met someone who wanted to cause trouble,
00:42:06she always chose to believe Kevin.
00:42:09She had absolute confidence in him.
00:42:12But this time, the troublemaker was from his own family.
00:42:17The Bennett family that stood at the peak of the United States of America.
00:42:23Deborah came in full fury and was so overpowering
00:42:27that it was clear she was confident in her ability to deal with Kevin.
00:42:32So Claire's first thought was not to let Deborah and Kevin meet.
00:42:37This was partly because the white-robed older man behind Deborah
00:42:41was not a normal older man.
00:42:45If Kevin rashly came over, who knows what would happen?
00:42:50Disappointed.
00:42:52Deborah gritted her teeth and suddenly let out an evil laugh.
00:42:57No, I'm not disappointed.
00:43:00I'm not disappointed at all.
00:43:03You have successfully ignited my anger.
00:43:07So why should I be disappointed?
00:43:13Since you love that bastard so much, I presume that bastard also loves you.
00:43:20If that bastard saw me flaying you, what do you think his reaction would be?
00:43:27Deborah's smile was ferocious, making everyone shudder in fear.
00:43:34Claire's pretty face changed.
00:43:36It was clear that Deborah intended to torture her.
00:43:40Tie her up.
00:43:43Deborah ordered with an evil grin.
00:43:45Yes, miss.
00:43:48The two bodyguards respectfully nodded and swiftly came over to Claire.
00:43:53It took no effort at all to tie her up.
00:43:57Just then, Deborah pulled a short dagger out from her waist
00:44:02and walked in front of Claire.
00:44:04What are you doing?
00:44:06Claire gritted her teeth and met Deborah's gaze without fear.
00:44:12What does it look like I'm doing?
00:44:14Deborah smiled mockingly.
00:44:17I want to try out the edge of my dagger and see how sharp it is.
00:44:24Don't touch my daughter.
00:44:26If you have a problem with anyone, let it be with me.
00:44:31Alan's eyes were bloodshot.
00:44:33He wanted to kill Deborah.
00:44:36Smash this old thing's mouth.
00:44:38Let's see if he's going to make a ruckus.
00:44:42Deborah looked coldly at Alan.
00:44:45Yes, miss.
00:44:47The bodyguard in the black suit moved as he was ordered.
00:44:51He grabbed Alan's collar and slapped him a few times in the face.
00:44:56Stop.
00:44:57Stop.
00:44:59With a plop, Eileen fell to her knees, begging and crying.
00:45:04Miss Bennett, please stop this.
00:45:08I'll call that trash right now and tell him to get back here immediately.
00:45:14As Eileen spoke, she took out her cell phone
00:45:17and prepared to call Kevin while trembling.
00:45:21Unexpectedly, Deborah sent the phone flying with a slap.
00:45:26Then, with a sneer on her face, she said,
00:45:31Now you want to call that bastard?
00:45:35Too late.
00:45:37Wait for me to finish taking care of this girl first.
00:45:43Within the Bennett family, the one Kevin talked about the most was Claire.
00:45:49She knew how important Claire was to Kevin,
00:45:52and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Claire was Kevin's better half.
00:45:57Every slash she made on Claire's body was equivalent to cutting Kevin's heart.
00:46:03It would make him wish he was dead.
00:46:06She was looking forward to Kevin's expression when he returned home
00:46:10and saw his wife bleeding and covered in wounds.
00:46:14It would be amazing.
00:46:18Deborah licked her lips as a perverted smile appeared on her face.
00:46:23Do you think I should cut off your pretty face first,
00:46:28or a piece of flesh from your body?
00:46:32Deborah's dagger gently sliced through Claire's pink neck.
00:46:37The smile on her face sent chills down one's spine.
00:46:42If you have the stomach for it, then just kill me.
00:46:46Claire shouted angrily.
00:46:48Kill you?
00:46:49No, no, no!
00:46:54You're such an entertaining toy, but I haven't had enough fun.
00:47:00How can I kill you already?
00:47:04If you want to die, you have to do it in front of that bastard!
00:47:10At the mention of Kevin, Deborah gritted her teeth once more.
00:47:16Her voice was as vicious as a demon's.
00:47:20What sort of animosity does Kevin have with you?
00:47:24Claire trembled in anger.
00:47:26She did not understand how Deborah could have such hatred for Kevin
00:47:31and wanted to use this crazy method to get revenge on him.
00:47:36Hatred?
00:47:40Deborah suddenly burst into laughter.
00:47:43Then she abruptly retracted her smile.
00:47:47You're thinking too much.
00:47:49There's no animosity between me and that bastard.
00:47:53I've only targeted him because I don't like him.
00:47:58If there's no need to talk about revenge, it's that bastard's fault for not knowing
00:48:04his place.
00:48:06A dog should be a dog.
00:48:09It shouldn't try to be anything different.
00:48:13Deborah's words were ambiguous, but Claire understood some of the hidden meaning behind
00:48:18them.
00:48:20Deborah wanted to torment Kevin because of Kevin's identity as heir of the Bennett family.
00:48:26Bitch, your face is so beautiful.
00:48:30If I cut it open, that bastard would go crazy, right?
00:48:36Deborah licked her lips before turning her gaze to Claire's beautiful face, which was
00:48:41as warm as jade.
00:48:44As a woman, she knew very well how important looks were to a woman.
00:48:49If she ruined Claire's face, Kevin would probably be violently ill with rage.
00:48:56Claire's pretty face slightly changed.
00:49:00She forced herself to remain calm and unthreatened.
00:49:05You'd better not do anything reckless.
00:49:07Kevin will kill you.
00:49:09Kill me?
00:49:11Deborah sneered.
00:49:12Woman, are you kidding me?
00:49:16Do you know who I am?
00:49:19If that bastard dares to kill me, not only will he die, but so will you and your entire
00:49:28family.
00:49:35Kevin was an illegitimate child.
00:49:37An illegitimate child who could never obtain the approval of the Bennett family, nor see
00:49:43the light of day.
00:49:44When Harvey announced two months ago that someone else was to be the heir of the Bennett
00:49:49family, no one put together the actual reason why.
00:49:53Everyone was clear that the identity of this heir was just a pretense, but once Kevin lost
00:49:59his value, his position in the Bennett family would not even be comparable to a dog.
00:50:06At that time, anyone could step on him.
00:50:10Deborah's words caused Claire's heart to tighten.
00:50:13She didn't think that the situation within the Bennett family would become so complicated.
00:50:19Kevin was the true successor of the Bennett family, but now, anyone within the Bennett
00:50:24family could step on Kevin's head.
00:50:28Are you afraid?
00:50:29If you're scared, then beg me for mercy and beg me to let you go.
00:50:36Seeing that Claire's pretty face had started to turn pale, Deborah couldn't help but feel
00:50:42even more proud of herself.
00:50:44Get out of my face!
00:50:46Claire looked at Deborah in disgust.
00:50:50She wouldn't sink to the level of this crazy woman, even if she were beaten to death.
00:50:56You still dare to be stubborn?
00:51:00Deborah's face turned cold.
00:51:02Are you not afraid that I'll kill you?
00:51:05Why should I be afraid?
00:51:07Claire sneered.
00:51:08If you were going to kill me, you would have done it long ago.
00:51:13You wouldn't have wasted time and run your mouth so much.
00:51:16Good, good!
00:51:19Alright!
00:51:20Deborah's blood boiled in anger.
00:51:24So you say you're not afraid?
00:51:27We'll see about that.
00:51:30A trace of malevolence flashed across Deborah's face.
00:51:35As she spoke, she gripped the dagger in her hand and stabbed downwards viciously at the
00:51:40back of Claire's hand.
00:51:43Blood splattered as the dag pierced her hand.
00:51:46The intense pain caused Claire to scream uncontrollably, sweating profusely.
00:51:52Does it hurt?
00:51:55Deborah gained malicious pleasure by hurting Claire.
00:51:59Claire glared at Deborah without a word.
00:52:02Deborah raised an eyebrow.
00:52:04No?
00:52:06Seems like I'm still too merciful.
00:52:10Deborah sighed and stirred the dagger in her hand deeper into Claire's flesh, causing
00:52:15even more blood to flow out.
00:52:18Claire screamed in pain, her pretty face as pale as a sheet of paper.
00:52:24Let go of my daughter!
00:52:28Just then, Eileen screamed and rushed over hysterically.
00:52:32Before she could reach Deborah, a bodyguard in a black suit grabbed her by the hair and
00:52:37crushed his knee into her lower abdomen.
00:52:41After a muffled groan, Eileen curled up and fell to the ground.
00:52:46Still not begging for mercy?
00:52:49Deborah looked at Claire with a cold smile.
00:52:53Madam, if you have the stomach for it, then kill me!
00:52:58Claire smiled bitterly and weakly.
00:53:01Kill you?
00:53:02Where am I supposed to find another fun toy if I kill you?
00:53:09Deborah shouted.
00:53:10As she spoke, she pulled out the dagger that had been lodged into Claire's hand and viciously
00:53:16stabbed it into Claire's other hand.
00:53:19Claire groaned.
00:53:20Her delicate body could not help but tremble.
00:53:24Beg me!
00:53:25Beg me and I'll forgive you!
00:53:30Deborah looked at Claire with a savage expression.
00:53:33She didn't believe that there would be a woman as brutal as this one in the world.
00:53:38Go away!
00:53:40Claire moaned in pain as she cursed in rage, a bone-biting hatred emitting from her eyes.
00:53:47Go away!
00:53:49Deborah's face darkened once again as she smiled as if challenged.
00:53:54I have to admit, you are tougher than I expected.
00:53:58But then again, I like a challenge like you.
00:54:04With that, she rotated the dagger in Claire's hand again.
00:54:08The intense pain caused the veins in Claire's forehead to bulge, and she almost fainted.
00:54:14That's it?
00:54:17Need to do something more spiteful.
00:54:20Deborah scolded with some annoyance.
00:54:22She pulled out her dagger, glanced at Eileen, and said with disgust.
00:54:27Call that bastard and have him rush over in ten minutes.
00:54:33If you delay by even one minute, I'll chop off one of her fingers.
00:54:39Eileen's hands were trembling as she hurriedly dialed Kevin's number.
00:54:45Damn you!
00:54:46Get back here right now!
00:54:48Claire is going to be tortured to death!
00:54:51Eileen cried and howled.
00:54:53What?
00:54:55Kevin was shocked as if he had been struck by lightning.
00:54:58At that moment, Deborah's sneering voice came over the phone.
00:55:03You bastard!
00:55:04I'll give you ten minutes!
00:55:06If you aren't here within ten minutes, I'll chop off her fingers one by one!
00:55:11Deborah!
00:55:14Kevin's expression changed dramatically.
00:55:16He never thought that Deborah would dare come to Sacramento, knowing the consequences.
00:55:23Deborah hung up the phone without waiting for Kevin to speak.
00:55:27A wave of unprecedented anger instantly surged into Kevin's chest.
00:55:32He felt like he was about to explode.
00:55:35Kevin, what's wrong?
00:55:37Dex asked wordly.
00:55:40Kevin didn't say a word but kicked the truck's door open and ran to the bottom of the mountain
00:55:45as fast as he could.
00:55:48Do you think that bastard can get here in ten minutes?
00:55:53Deborah asked casually as she wiped the blood off the dagger.
00:55:58Claire opened her eyes slightly as she wavered in and out of consciousness.
00:56:03Deborah sighed.
00:56:04If he can't, you'll have to suffer.
00:56:09I don't want to do that either, but when I think about that bastard, someone has to pay.
00:56:16You two, come and kneel as well.
00:56:19Deborah glanced at Eileen and Alan.
00:56:23I won't kneel.
00:56:25I don't care about that trash and wouldn't care if he was dead, Eileen said with her
00:56:31mouth trembling.
00:56:33Is that so, Deborah chuckled, her expression turning cold.
00:56:39But you are related to him.
00:56:43Anyone related to that piece of garbage will be held accountable, guilty by association.
00:56:50The two of them were forced to kneel on the ground.
00:56:52Deborah looked at the time.
00:56:55Three more minutes, two minutes, one minute, thirty seconds.
00:57:05It seems like he won't make it in time.
00:57:09Deborah sighed as if she was feeling sorry for Claire.
00:57:13He has let you down, and I will fulfill my promise.
00:57:20Deborah grinned viciously as she picked up her dagger and prepared to slash down.
00:57:25Just then, an unbelievably angry voice rang out from the door.
00:57:30Stop!
00:57:31Put your hands up and drop the knife!
00:57:35Stop!
00:57:37Deborah sneered and didn't look back.
00:57:39Instead, she gripped her dagger tightly and viciously slashed at Claire's finger.
00:57:46You're playing with fire!
00:57:48Kevin's eyes almost burst out of their sockets.
00:57:52Deborah's action had ignited all the rage pounding in his chest.
00:57:56He stood in front of Deborah with a single strike, his iron fist viciously smashing down
00:58:02on her head.
00:58:04A powerful sense of impending doom surrounded Deborah in the blink of an eye.
00:58:09Her heart was in turmoil.
00:58:11How could Kevin be so lightning fast?
00:58:15Deborah rolled away from her original spot as soon as she finished her thought, and she
00:58:20dodged Kevin's deadly punch.
00:58:26Deborah leaned against the corner of the wall and panted heavily.
00:58:30Looking at Kevin's cold and emotionless face, she felt a chill run down her spine.
00:58:36The door was seven to eight feet away, but he would stop her in the blink of an eye.
00:58:42Kevin's speed was just too fast.
00:58:45If she didn't dodge Kevin's punch just now and had instead chopped down on Charlie's
00:58:49finger with the dagger, it would have cost her her life.
00:58:53This was the price.
00:58:55Deborah was shocked and angry.
00:58:58Just a little bit more, just a bit more, and she would have died here today.
00:59:03How could Kevin be so strong all of a sudden?
00:59:07After missing Deborah with that punch, Kevin shifted his gaze to Claire.
00:59:12When he saw Claire's bloodied arm, an insurmountable rage consumed Kevin and filled the entire
00:59:18room.
00:59:19Deborah, you will die!
00:59:24Kevin's tone was ice cold.
00:59:26He suddenly turned around and stared at Deborah.
00:59:29His gaze was as though he was going to cut Deborah into a thousand pieces.
00:59:35Facing Kevin's dangerous gaze, Deborah could not help but shiver inside.
00:59:40On the surface, however, she did not seem to be afraid at all.
00:59:44Instead, she mocked Kevin and continued to provoke him.
00:59:49Oh, really?
00:59:50Am I playing with fire?
00:59:54Who gave you the guts to say that to me?
00:59:57Or could it be that after staying in Sacramento for three years, you have forgotten who you
01:00:03are?
01:00:06Why do you want to kill me, Deborah?
01:00:09This is Sacramento, not San Francisco!
01:00:12Deborah, do you think I'm afraid to kill you?
01:00:16Kevin shouted with anger in his eyes.
01:00:19There was no question that Deborah was provoking and infuriating him.
01:00:23She was hoping to force him into making a mistake.
01:00:27As long as he could not control his power and made a move today, there was sufficient
01:00:32reason for the Bennett family to strip him of his power and even send out the elite forces
01:00:38of the family to suppress him.
01:00:41Make everything he had done before coming to an end.
01:00:45You dare!
01:00:47Kill them all, Deborah smiled psychotically.
01:00:51Kevin clenched his fists tightly and suppressed his anger.
01:00:55Of course, he could kill Deborah with one punch.
01:00:59But after killing Deborah?
01:01:01The consequences would be too much to bear, and the Bennett family would endlessly pursue
01:01:07him.
01:01:08Claire, Alan, Eileen, Jared, River, Harry, his family and friends would all be killed.
01:01:20It wasn't that he didn't dare to kill Deborah, it was that he couldn't.
01:01:24The cost was too high.
01:01:26Seeing Kevin skillfully control his anger, Deborah couldn't help but feel slightly bitter.
01:01:33You bastard!
01:01:34You can handle it as usual.
01:01:38In our family, you endured for more than ten years, and when you came to Sacramento, you
01:01:44endured for another three years.
01:01:48This ability of yours to endure, it's even better than a turtle hiding its head.
01:01:55Are you done?
01:01:57Kevin took a deep breath.
01:01:59What is it?
01:02:00Are you ready for me to leave?
01:02:03Deborah twisted her words.
01:02:06Kevin shook his head.
01:02:07You're overthinking.
01:02:08I won't let you go.
01:02:11You won't let me go?
01:02:14Do you want me to stay and take you out for dinner?
01:02:17Deborah laughed.
01:02:19If you think you can win me over, I advise you give up on this idea immediately.
01:02:27A lowly thing like you is not worthy to cooperate with me.
01:02:34Is that so?
01:02:35Kevin was expressionless.
01:02:37He said coldly, I will not cooperate with a cripple.
01:02:42What do you mean?
01:02:44Deborah's expression changed.
01:02:46She subconsciously tried to retreat.
01:02:49However, the speed of Kevin's hand was too fast for her to escape.
01:02:54The next second, Deborah felt her scalp tighten as her vision shifted uncontrollably downwards.
01:03:01The pattern on the glass tea table grew larger and larger.
01:03:05With a loud bang, Deborah's face slammed into the glass tea table.
01:03:10The glass table shattered, and thousands of glass fragments struck Deborah's face.
01:03:18After a highly shrill scream, Deborah's face was severely mutilated.
01:03:23Miss!
01:03:24The older man's eyes almost popped out of his head as he clenched his fists.
01:03:29He would never have thought that Kevin would attack Deborah like this without any warning,
01:03:35and it was so fast that Deborah didn't even have the time to react.
01:03:40Kill the bastard!
01:03:42Deborah screamed crazily, as though she had lost her mind.
01:03:47The white-robed older man appeared in front of Kevin like a ghost.
01:03:51He struck out his palm, and a monstrous wave of air rushed towards Kevin.
01:03:57Kevin's expression turned cold.
01:04:00Without any hesitation, he punched out at the white-robed older man.
01:04:04Boom!
01:04:06As the fists and palms collided, the white-robed older man couldn't help but take three steps
01:04:11back with a highly shocked expression.
01:04:14You broke through to the last stage of the Dark Force!
01:04:20Kevin was aggressive, and did not say anything.
01:04:24If he did not limit his true abilities, he would turn the white-robed older man into
01:04:28a pile of scraps with a single punch.
01:04:32He only used three-tenths of his strength in that punch just now.
01:04:36What?
01:04:38Deborah was also shocked to the point that she couldn't control herself.
01:04:43This bastard broke through to the last stage of Dark Force?
01:04:47How was this possible?
01:04:50After sending the white-robed older man flying with a punch, Kevin shifted his gaze towards
01:04:55Deborah.
01:04:57Deborah trembled as Kevin approached her.
01:05:00You can't touch me, Deborah threatened him.
01:05:03Bastard, what are you doing?
01:05:07Kevin's performance had wholly exceeded her expectations.
01:05:12Before coming to Sacramento this time, the family had estimated Kevin's strength to
01:05:16be middle period of the Dark Force stage.
01:05:19So they sent out an older man in a white suit, who was in the late stage of Dark Force
01:05:25to follow him, just in case some accident occurred.
01:05:29But unexpectedly, this had happened.
01:05:33Kevin had not only broken through to the last stage of Dark Force, but from the looks of
01:05:38it, he also belonged to the group of influential people in the late stage of Dark Force.
01:05:45Are you scared?
01:05:47Kevin charged a question.
01:05:49Deborah acted arrogant and smug to control everything and make herself seem strong.
01:05:55However, if everything was under her control, Kevin would have died three years ago and
01:06:00wouldn't be here now.
01:06:02I'm not afraid.
01:06:06Why should I be?
01:06:08Deborah was angry and embarrassed.
01:06:11You are an illegitimate child, but I am a powerful woman from the Bennett family.
01:06:19There is a significant difference between the two of us.
01:06:23Don't even think about killing me.
01:06:25You will certainly be killed if you touch a single strand of hair on my head.
01:06:32Deborah threatened crazily.
01:06:35She did not believe that Kevin would kill her and throw away his plan of having a life
01:06:39with Claire for twenty years or more.
01:06:43She hoped Kevin would not do such a stupid thing.
01:06:46Is that so?
01:06:49Kevin took a step forward and stood in front of Deborah.
01:06:53Deborah panicked and retreated, but she was only at the late stage of Bright Force.
01:06:58So how could she defend herself against Kevin's attack?
01:07:02Kevin slapped Deborah's face and sent her flying.
01:07:13Uncle Randall, stop him!
01:07:16Deborah covered her face, both shocked and annoyed.
01:07:20You better not slip and make a mistake, Randall bellowed and again rushed forward to stop
01:07:26Kevin with all his might.
01:07:29Kevin laughed madly and slapped out his palm.
01:07:33Randall was like a rubber ball as he flew backward and crashed into the wall, cracking
01:07:39the drywall.
01:07:41Kevin walked over to Deborah and looked down at her condescendingly.
01:07:46You said I'll surely die if I touch a single hair on your head?
01:07:51Slap!
01:07:52Without waiting for Deborah to speak, Kevin slapped her across the face, causing some
01:07:57teeth to fly out of her mouth.
01:08:00Now that I've slapped you, why aren't I dead yet?
01:08:04You bastard!
01:08:06You will die!
01:08:07Slap!
01:08:09I slapped you again!
01:08:10Still, I'm alive!
01:08:13Slap!
01:08:14In just one minute, Kevin had slapped Deborah more than thirty times.
01:08:19Her face was so swollen and misshapen that she looked like a wounded animal that had
01:08:25lost all its teeth.
01:08:27Deborah!
01:08:29You bastard!
01:08:30I will kill you!
01:08:31I will kill you!
01:08:34Deborah cursed at Kevin crazily with her hair wild around her face.
01:08:40Kevin shouted, Kill me?
01:08:42Great!
01:08:43I'll wait for you to kill me!
01:08:46That may be so, but before you kill me, I'll pay you back for what you've done to Claire
01:08:51a hundredfold.
01:08:53Kevin then stepped on the back of Deborah's hand, stomping down until all the bones were
01:08:58broken.
01:09:00Deborah screamed like a pig being butchered.
01:09:03Her eyes rolled back in her head, and she fainted from the pain.
01:09:08Kevin showed no mercy.
01:09:10Instead, he repeated his actions and crippled Deborah's other hand similarly.
01:09:18After breaking both of Deborah's hands, a trace of coldness flashed across Kevin's eyes.
01:09:24He channeled his force and heavily kicked Deborah's lower abdomen.
01:09:29Deborah's life force had been completely shattered, and the energy she had cultivated for more
01:09:34than twenty years was gone instantly.
01:09:38Kevin had completely crippled Deborah.
01:09:43To shatter Deborah's life force meant that she would ultimately fade away from the inner
01:09:47circle of the Bennett family in a large family like the Bennett family.
01:09:52The only way to the top was through one's life force cultivation.
01:09:58Evil creature, you evil creature!
01:10:03Behind him, the white-robed older man wailed.
01:10:07He had watched Deborah grow up.
01:10:10Even though she was stubborn and arrogant, he had always loved her dearly.
01:10:15In his eyes, Deborah was like his daughter.
01:10:18But now, Kevin had completely crippled Deborah in front of him.
01:10:23It could only be imagined how dark Deborah's life would now be in the Bennett family.
01:10:28Kevin's method was a thousand times more torturous than just killing her.
01:10:34Evil creature!
01:10:36When that pathetic excuse for a woman tortured Claire, did you call her evil?
01:10:41Kevin gnashed his teeth.
01:10:44If he remembered correctly, this white-robed older man was the butler in the second branch
01:10:50of the Bennett family.
01:10:52Although Randall's position was slightly lower than Trevor and Taylor's, he was still a person
01:10:58who took charge of his own business within the group.
01:11:01The Bennett family asked him and Deborah to come together for him to supervise Deborah
01:11:06and have Deborah take note of the situation.
01:11:09However, this older man had been indifferent the entire time while Deborah had tortured
01:11:15Claire.
01:11:17If he had helped Claire when Deborah was torturing her, things would not have progressed to this
01:11:22point.
01:11:24You!
01:11:27Randall spat a mouthful of blood as his anger surged in his heart.
01:11:32He pointed at Claire and roared like thunder.
01:11:35How can such a despicable thing compare with the nobility of Deborah?
01:11:42Even if she had 10,000 lives, she wouldn't be worth as much as a single strand of Deborah's
01:11:47hair.
01:11:49Slap!
01:11:50Kevin hit Randall's face, grabbed his collar, and growled.
01:11:55You old thing, perhaps in your eyes, Deborah is worth more than 10,000 gold coins, but
01:12:02in your father's eyes, she's nothing.
01:12:06If she dares to hurt Claire, she should pay the price.
01:12:10Kevin, you idiot!
01:12:13Aren't you afraid of the consequences of your reckless behavior here today?
01:12:19Before coming to Sacramento, the Bennett family had never thought Kevin would behave this
01:12:24way.
01:12:26If Kevin had any brains, he would understand what kind of power the Bennett family represented.
01:12:32One master and two grandmasters.
01:12:36The Bennett family was a powerful family that two grandmasters dared not to provoke.
01:12:42Even within the Martial Alliance, they were a force to be reckoned with.
01:12:48Deborah's father was one of the top experts in the late period of Converting Force stage.
01:12:53One of the best martial arts masters.
01:12:57After crippling Deborah, the second branch's rage was not something Kevin could withstand.
01:13:03Afraid?
01:13:04I'm not even afraid of death.
01:13:09Are you afraid of your second branch?
01:13:11If you want to torture and kill me, I invite you to call on your second branch and let
01:13:17them try their best.
01:13:19He had initially wanted to secretly accumulate his strength, wait for the time to mature,
01:13:25and then fight against the Bennett family head on.
01:13:28However, Deborah's sudden appearance disrupted all of his plans.
01:13:32He couldn't swallow his anger this time.
01:13:35He had to strike Deborah down.
01:13:38There was no need to wait any longer.
01:13:41Even if he faced the entire Bennett family's wrath, he did not care.
01:13:46Even if he died, it had been worth it.
01:13:51This is crazy.
01:13:53Crazy!
01:13:54You evil creature!
01:13:55You are insane!
01:13:58Randall was so angry that his entire body was trembling.
01:14:02He did not expect Kevin to say such outrageous words.
01:14:06To dare to provoke the Bennett family directly.
01:14:10Did he think that the successor status Harvey had given him granted him a free pass?
01:14:16Shut up!
01:14:17Kevin coldly snorted as he kicked Randall in the chest, sending him flying.
01:14:23Go back and tell Deborah's father that if he wants to test my strength, he should come
01:14:28personally.
01:14:29Sending a weak woman like Deborah was a fatal mistake.
01:14:34Although Deborah never revealed the valid reason for her visit, Kevin had been fully
01:14:38aware that it was merely a test.
01:14:41The Bennett family just wanted to probe and see how strong he was right now, and how he
01:14:46felt about the identity of the new successor.
01:14:50They couldn't figure out Harvey, so they could only focus on themselves.
01:14:55The Bennett family was divided into 13 groups, and the internal situation was highly complicated.
01:15:02Harvey was the head of the household, and at the same time, he was the patriarch of
01:15:08the Bennett family.
01:15:09His position in the Bennett family was equivalent to that of a lord.
01:15:15No one in the Bennett family would dare refute the decisions he made, or the words he spoke.
01:15:21Just two months ago, he had set up Kevin's illegitimate son as heir of the Bennett family.
01:15:27No one from the Bennett family dared to utter a word of disapproval.
01:15:32But just because they didn't question Harvey, didn't mean they wouldn't confront Kevin.
01:15:38No matter what, they could not accept that Kevin, the illegitimate child, had become
01:15:44the heir of the Bennett family.
01:15:54If he couldn't accept it, he had to think of a way to stop it.
01:15:58This was all because of Deborah's trip to Sacramento.
01:16:03Rather than blaming Deborah individually, it would be better to blame the entire Bennett
01:16:07family for choosing to start a way against Kevin.
01:16:12Deborah and Randall were dragged outside like two dead dogs by the bodyguards.
01:16:19Claire had lost consciousness from her confrontation with Deborah, and Alan and Eileen were knocked
01:16:25unconscious after the fight between Kevin and Randall.
01:16:29Looking at Claire's badly mutilated hands, Kevin felt his heart clench.
01:16:34He couldn't imagine the level of pain Deborah's dagger had caused Claire when it pierced the
01:16:39back of her hand.
01:16:41Curse the Bennett family!
01:16:44None of this would have happened if it weren't for the Bennett family.
01:16:48The debt between him and the Bennett family would be settled sooner or later.
01:16:53The most important thing right now was to send Claire to the hospital as soon as possible.
01:16:59If he were too late, Claire's hand would probably be crippled.
01:17:04Kevin called Martin.
01:17:06Within five minutes, a shiny Rolls Royce appeared at the Beverly Villa entrance.
01:17:11Martin rushed over with his doctor.
01:17:15When he pushed open the door, he saw the complete disaster inside.
01:17:20Martin's pupils constricted, and he instantly turned pale with fear.
01:17:25Kevin, what's going on?
01:17:28Who did this?
01:17:30The Bennett family, Kevin said in a deep voice.
01:17:34Martin was beyond shocked, but didn't show it on the surface.
01:17:38Instead, he hurriedly apologized.
01:17:41Kevin, I was careless.
01:17:43I didn't do any security work.
01:17:47Martin, this has nothing to do with you.
01:17:50Kevin shook his head.
01:17:52Deborah was looking for trouble with Claire.
01:17:55It doesn't matter that Martin didn't recognize that fact because even if he did, Martin would
01:18:00not have been able to stop her.
01:18:04Let the doctor bandage Claire first, Kevin sighed.
01:18:08While Martin's doctor was bandaging Claire, on the other side of the hospital, Deborah
01:18:13was also receiving medical treatment.
01:18:16Compared to Claire, her injuries were much worse.
01:18:20Not only had her face been disfigured by Kevin, but the bones in her hand were also shattered,
01:18:27and Kevin completely crippled her abdomen.
01:18:30The hospital in Sacramento could only do some simple treatment for Deborah's injuries.
01:18:36For more extensive medical care, Deborah was brought back to the Bennett family's private
01:18:41hospital by private jet.
01:18:44The news of Deborah's injuries spread quickly across the entire Bennett family.
01:18:50One could imagine what kind of waves this news would create within the Bennett family.
01:18:56On that same day, Deborah's older brother, Dash, had brought the Azure Dragon Guards back
01:19:02from the northern border in the military region.
01:19:06The remaining 600 people in the Bennett family's second room would also be gathering in San
01:19:11Francisco the next day.
01:19:14Inside the second room of the Bennett family, dark clouds were covering the sky.
01:19:19A storm was brewing.
01:19:22No one would have thought that the illegitimate Bennett family child from so far away in Sacramento
01:19:27would do something outrageous.
01:19:30He had completely disabled Deborah.
01:19:34It was simply earth shattering.
01:19:36No one could imagine that Kevin dared to do such a thing.
01:19:41Everyone knew that Deborah's father was from the late period of converting force stage.
01:19:46In this era, when a new martial arts grandmaster was not born, the late period of converting
01:19:51force stage was the most powerful battle power.
01:19:56No one dared to go up against a late period of converting force stage fighter, but Kevin
01:20:01had done that.
01:20:04Everyone would be focused on what would happen next.
01:20:07The decision Bruce made would directly determine Kevin's fate.
01:20:11At the same time, it would also affect the structure of the entire Bennett family.
01:20:17Two days later, Claire slowly woke up.
01:20:21The first face that came into view was Eileen's.
01:20:24Claire, you're awake.
01:20:28As Claire woke up, a hint of glee appeared on Eileen's face.
01:20:33Mom, where's Kevin?
01:20:36Claire asked weakly.
01:20:39She had lost consciousness from the pain after Deborah pierced her arm the other day, but
01:20:44she had no idea what had happened.
01:20:47Eileen's expression changed instantly when she heard the name Kevin.
01:20:51Why are you asking about that piece of trash?
01:20:55Don't you think your injuries are reason enough to forget about him?
01:20:59Mom, Kevin is not to be blamed for what happened.
01:21:04Eileen's tone was filled with disgust and resentment.
01:21:08In her opinion, her family's injuries were a direct result of their involvement with
01:21:12Kevin.
01:21:13If it weren't for him, none of this would have happened, and the three would be safe
01:21:18and sound.
01:21:19You're still not blaming him?
01:21:23Eileen's voice became sharp.
01:21:25Claire, are you blind?
01:21:28That horrible woman rushed in that day and asked me for him by name.
01:21:33You're still going to say that this isn't his fault?
01:21:38Would you hold him responsible if your dad and I had died?
01:21:41Mom...
01:21:43Claire paused for a second.
01:21:45She knew what she wanted to say, but decided not to.
01:21:49Eileen, Alan, and her were all injured because of their association with Kevin.
01:21:55Indeed, Deborah came for Kevin.
01:22:00Just then, Kevin carried her breakfast into her room.
01:22:04Are you awake?
01:22:05A forced smile appeared on Kevin's face when Claire woke up.
01:22:09Yes, Claire nodded lightly.
01:22:12Eat some breakfast.
01:22:14You haven't eaten in two days.
01:22:17Kevin was about to place the breakfast on the table, but Eileen suddenly stood up and
01:22:21slapped the breakfast bag away with her hand.
01:22:25Oatmeal and toast were scattered all over the floor.
01:22:30What are you doing here?
01:22:32Haven't you caused enough trouble?
01:22:34Eileen's face was angry as she pointed at Kevin's nose and cursed.
01:22:39She did not intend to hold her true feelings back from Kevin.
01:22:43Mom, I already said that I don't blame him.
01:22:47Claire panicked.
01:22:48Shut up!
01:22:51Eileen turned around and looked coldly at Claire.
01:22:54Then, she shifted her gaze to Kevin.
01:22:58You have to give me an explanation for this whole ordeal.
01:23:02Who exactly was that woman who attacked us?
01:23:05Why was she after you?
01:23:08Her name is Debra.
01:23:10Pausing for a moment, Kevin continued.
01:23:13The reason she is coming after me is because she has an old grudge against me.
01:23:20What grudge?
01:23:21Eileen was overbearing.
01:23:23Kevin frowned.
01:23:24Mom, it's a very long story, and I don't have time to explain it right now.
01:23:32If there's a chance in the future, I will explain it all to you.
01:23:36No, I want to know now!
01:23:41If you tell me the truth, you can go to the city courthouse today and get married to Claire.
01:23:47Don't even think about the future!
01:23:49Eileen refused to give up.
01:23:52Debra had left a shadow in her heart, and she must know her whole story now.
01:23:57Otherwise, she would not be able to sleep peacefully.
01:24:00Mom, can you just stop?
01:24:04Claire yelled impatiently.
01:24:06What do you mean, stop?
01:24:08Eileen yelled.
01:24:09Do you know how many things this man has hidden from you?
01:24:14It's one thing for him to be secretly looking for a woman behind your back, but now you're
01:24:18making enemies everywhere!
01:24:21Because of him, everyone wants to find us and kill us!
01:24:26How can I not ask why?
01:24:29I have to know.
01:24:30I don't even know why I almost died, Eileen said, flustered and exasperated.
01:24:38All right, Mom, first you go outside.
01:24:44Kevin and I will talk alone.
01:24:46When we get to the bottom of it, I'll tell you everything.
01:24:51Eileen's cowardice had long been carved into her bones.
01:24:54As long as it was a matter that involved her own life, it would be important.
01:24:59All right, then I'll go.
01:25:02Ask away, Eileen warned Claire.
01:25:06She was so clear that Kevin would not say anything if she continued pestering him.
01:25:12On the other hand, Claire might be able to get something out of him that Eileen couldn't.
01:25:18After Eileen left the room, Claire paused for a moment before asking.
01:25:23Is it someone from the Bennett family?
01:25:26Yes, she's my second uncle's daughter.
01:25:31Why would she want to cause you trouble?
01:25:35Kevin was the heir to the Bennett family, and logically speaking, his position in the
01:25:40Bennett family should be on a pedestal, similar to Jack's position in the Wright family.
01:25:46However, looking at Deborah's expression, she did not respect Kevin at all.
01:25:53Because I'm an illegitimate child, Kevin sighed.
01:25:57He didn't hide anything and told her the truth.
01:26:00He didn't know much about the feud between his mother, Sue, and his father, Bruno.
01:26:06However, people from the Bennett family occasionally mentioned it.
01:26:11In Bruno's previous life, he brought Sue to meet his family once and declared in front
01:26:16of his father, Jameson, that he would never marry anyone other than Sue.
01:26:22In the end, his legs were broken by Jameson.
01:26:26Sue was also kicked out of the Bennett family.
01:26:29On the second day after Sue left the Bennett family, Jameson told Bruno about an arranged
01:26:35marriage between him and a princess of Rosemont.
01:26:39Harvey originally wanted to reject him outright and threatened him with death, but Jameson
01:26:45made it clear that if he didn't go through with the marriage, he would have Sue killed.
01:26:51After Bruno and the princess married, everyone thought Sue would never be seen again in the
01:26:56Bennett family.
01:26:58However, three years later, Sue came back.
01:27:02She also brought a three-year-old child with her.
01:27:06That child was Kevin.
01:27:09Kevin's appearance caused the Bennett family to sink into turmoil once again.
01:27:14The Bennett family had a rare disagreement about Kevin's survival.
01:27:18A portion of the Bennett family believed Kevin should stay within the Bennett family.
01:27:23If Kevin were to remain outside, the Bennett family would suffer from a lot of gossip as
01:27:28a child born out of wedlock.
01:27:31After all, Kevin had the noble blood of the Bennett family flowing through his body.
01:27:37The other part of the family thought Kevin should be kicked out of the Bennett family
01:27:41altogether.
01:27:42They believed that the stigma of an illegitimate child like Kevin would sully the Bennett family's
01:27:47reputation.
01:27:50The two sacks were at odds because of this matter, and in the end, Jamison had to decide.
01:27:58Stay!
01:27:59Kevin could normally enjoy all the benefits and resources a typical Bennett family child
01:28:04should have, but he could not reveal that he was a true Bennett family member.
01:28:10Naturally, no one in the family dared to oppose Jamison's decision on the matter.
01:28:15But towards Sue and Kevin privately, the rest of the family members would not show
01:28:21them any respect or courtesy.
01:28:25Two years ago, when Bruno was around, the Bennett family would restrain themselves.
01:28:30Even if they hated Sue and Kevin, the Bennett family wouldn't display it too obviously.
01:28:36However, after two years, when Bruno mysteriously disappeared, everyone in the Bennett family
01:28:43changed their attitude.
01:28:45They were extremely troubled by Sue and Kevin, and not only did they cut off their resources,
01:28:51they even sent Sue and Kevin to where the Bennett family's servants lived.
01:28:56Kevin stayed in that environment, on the fringes of the Bennett family, for 15 years.
01:29:02If not for the fact that Sue had died of illness three years ago, he might have still been
01:29:07there.
01:29:08Kevin said it casually, but when Claire heard his story, her heart ached like never before.
01:29:14She didn't expect Kevin to have such a dark past.
01:29:18In such a large and powerful family like the Bennett family, she could only imagine what
01:29:23kind of unkind words an illegitimate child or single mother would receive.
01:29:29But even so, Kevin still endured.
01:29:32At this moment, Claire suddenly understood why Kevin had never mentioned the Bennett
01:29:37family to her in the past.
01:29:40He wasn't the heir of the Bennett family at all.
01:29:44To him, the heir of the Bennett family was just a conspiracy.
01:29:49Why did Harvey let you be the heir of the Bennett family?
01:29:53What on earth makes him want to do that?
01:29:56Claire could not help but ask.
01:29:59Harvey had a leading position in the Bennett family, so he definitely would not put the
01:30:03title of heir of the Bennett family for no reason.
01:30:07Kevin shook his head with a bitter smile.
01:30:11If I told you I don't know, would you believe me?
01:30:15I do!
01:30:17Claire was resolute.
01:30:19Kevin sighed.
01:30:20Actually, I can probably guess a little.
01:30:24The reason why Harvey called me the heir of the Bennett family is probably because of
01:30:28that cheap father of mine.
01:30:31Bruno?
01:30:32Claire frowned.
01:30:33Yes.
01:30:34Kevin nodded his head.
01:30:36He mysteriously disappeared when I was five.
01:30:39No one in the Bennett family knows where he went.
01:30:42No one knows where he went or what he did.
01:30:46The only thing I know is that he holds a very high position within the Bennett family.
01:30:52From the younger generation of the Bennett family, his achievement was the highest and
01:30:56most profound.
01:30:58Even Harvey couldn't compare to him back then.
01:31:01This time, Harvey suddenly named me as the heir of the Bennett family.
01:31:06It should be related to him.
01:31:08Besides him, I can't think of any other reason.
01:31:12Kevin said with a complicated expression.
01:31:15For Harvey, it was impossible not to blame him.
01:31:19After all, Harvey did not do what a father should have done.
01:31:23However, Kevin knew very well that Bruno could not have done better under the circumstances
01:31:29back then.
01:31:30If he hadn't married the princess, Sue wouldn't have lived another day.
01:31:35And naturally, Kevin wouldn't be here now.
01:31:38Then what should you do now?
01:31:41Kevin's words were not detailed, but she could understand that other than Harvey, whose attitude
01:31:47was uncertain, everyone else treated Kevin as a thorn in their side.
01:31:52They would not allow Kevin, an illegitimate child, to control the Bennett family.
01:31:57Therefore, sooner or later, they would eliminate him.
01:32:03Don't worry.
01:32:04The Bennett family won't make a move against me right now, Kevin smiled slightly.
01:32:09It had already been two days since Deborah was wounded.
01:32:13But in those days, there was no single sound from the Bennett family.
01:32:18Either they were accumulating their power, waiting to deal a fatal blow, or they were
01:32:22waiting for Harvey to speak.
01:32:25They wouldn't dare to do anything to him if Harvey didn't.
01:32:29Kevin guessed that the latter possibly would be more likely.
01:32:34Because Harvey's position in the Bennett family was very high, even Bruce had to be afraid.
01:32:40Bruce did not dare to make a move on him before he clearly understood Harvey's intentions.
01:32:46Yes, Claire nodded lightly.
01:32:49But a strong feeling of powerlessness arose in her heart.
01:32:54Now she realized that she was becoming more and more useless.
01:32:59Every time something happened to Kevin, she could not help him.
01:33:02It was fine if she couldn't help Kevin, but sometimes she would even hinder Kevin and
01:33:08distract his energy.
